The new barque " CITY OF OGDENSBURG," lying at the wharf in Chicago harbor,
receiving a cargo of grain, was struck by lightning, during a heavy thunderstorm on Saturday last, and all three of her masts, and parts of her deck were shattered, the crew, however, fortunately escaping injury. Some time will be required to put her again in sailing order.
The Democracy, Buffalo
Thursday, August 17, 1854

Since 2005 this site has been the prototype for the digital collection management tools built for the Our Digital World (formerly the OurOntario project of Knowledge Ontario.)

As a prototype it is subject to occasional, unexplained interruptions in service ... because we keep trying new things.
